123. Day Of The Dead - A Unique Fiesta In Mexico
Provides directions for making an altar.
http://www.mexweb.com/muertos.htm
Day of the dead
How to make your own altar The Day of the Dead
The Dead of the Dead altar is a prehispanic tradition that has lasted throughout the years. It has become an integrated part of the Catholic religion in Mexico. Every year it becomes a bigger and bigger event, with school classes, government employees and artists throughout Mexico competing for the most creative and interesting altar. Halloween is not a tradition in Mexico, and every year the Catholic church fights against the celebration and promotes the Day of the Dead Altars. November 1 (for dead little children - santos inocentes ) and November 2 for adults. What you need The most important thing to put on your Day of the Dead altar is a photograph of the person to whom you are dedicating the altar.
The three tier altar is covered in "papel picado" - which is bright colored tissue paper with cut out designs. The paper can be either handmade or purchased. Three important colors are purple (for pain) white (for hope) and pink (for the celebration).
Candles are also placed all over the altar. Purple candles again are used to signify pain. On the top level of the altar, four candles need to be placed - signifying the four cardinal points. The light of the candle will iluminate the way for the dead upon their return.

Year after Fox win, Mexico shows change of attitude
Vicente Fox waves to thousands of supporters in the early hours of July 3, 2000, after winning Mexico's presidential election MEXICO CITY, Mexico (AP) When Vicente Fox stood at a victory rally on the muggy night of July 2 as the first opposition candidate ever to win Mexico's presidency, he told cheering supporters that a new Mexico had been born. One year later, the old Mexico can still be seen everywhere: Cops still take bribes, children still go hungry. But from the gated mansions to damp alleys of cinder-block shacks, there has been a psychological change. It's a quiet wave of pride, responsibility, hope, a fledgling revival of civic spirit, all revolutionary in a nation long dulled into cynicism. Mexicans know better than anyone how old and deep the problems run. They want to give Fox, who was sworn into office just seven months ago, more time before passing judgment.

The Mexican-American War
by Jospeh Leach
The War with Mexico erupted over control of Texas and the territories bordering the US and Mexico. While the war was relatively short, it gained valuable experience for many officers of the United States Army who would go on to command the Armies on both sides of the Civil War
Table of Contents
  • Chapter 1 Increased tensions over Texas and a border skirmish.
  • Chapter 2 The war escalates and Mexico is defeated.
    Recommended Reading on the Mexican-American War
    In affiliation with the barnesandnoble.com Home Page U. S. - MEXICAN WAR: 1846-1848
    In the early 1840s a map of North America would show two dominant nations, the United States and Mexico. As the decade progressed, tensions between the two countries steadily mounted, erupting violently in the spring of 1846. What followed was a passionate territorial battle that would last for two years, cover hundreds of thousands of square miles, and forever alter the communities in its wake.

    Main Geography htmlAdWH('7002737', '234', '60'); Archaeological Research in Jalisco
    My research now and again ranges across a wider area of northern Mesoamerica, but my fieldwork is primarily in the state of Jalisco, particularly in the Tequila valleys in the approximate center of the state map below. Currently, this site focuses heavily on central Jalisco and on my own work. The site is intended, however, to become a center for information on the archaeology of Jalisco. Others working in the general region are invited to contact me about creating links to their own materials. Planned for March, 2004 - Session at the Society for American Archaeology meetings on Power, Social Organization, and Subsistence in the Teuchitlan Tradition of Central Jalisco: A First Attempt at a Synthesis Links to general publications: Beekman, Christopher S., William R. Fowler, jr., and Phil C. Weigand. 1996. Introduction: Special Section on Recent Research in the Lake Basins of Central Jalisco. Ancient Mesoamerica
    The following are past or present research projects, followed by the names of their directors or participants. The links lead to a discussion of the project (all authored by me, I hasten to add), associated images and site maps, and publications or papers, as well as to maps of the study region that show the project's location.

    Hands Around the World
    Hand Made Native American and Ethnic Sculpture
    Hands Around the World is dedicated to providing a marketplace for traditionally produced Native American sculpture. Sculpture making is one of the oldest Native American arts, being present in largely unchanged form. The Indians had created a repertoire of sculpture shapes and design elements specific, if not unique, to each tribal grouping. The variety and beauty of these creations are prized throughout the world. Sculpture crafts are ideal for starting a Native American art collection. We also have sculpture by artists from Indonesia and Mexico. The unique sculptures include dragons, figures, animals, dolls, and warriors. They are made from corn husks, pottery, or carved in wood. Atzompa is a tiny village in Mexico known for it's pottery including the fanciful and intricate munecas, or figures. The Guahibo Indians live in the Amazon Basin of South America. The women make dolls from bark and fiber, decorated with seeds. The Yekuana Indians are a very traditional tribe living along the riverbanks in the Amazon Rainforest in Venezuela. The men also carve benches into likenesses of jungle animals. The jaguar is often used as it is the symbol of the seat of power. The thinker which symbolizes God is another design often used, especially in shamanic items such as ceremonial rattles. The Piapoco Indians also live in the Amazon basin of Venezuela. The Piapoco men and sometimes women carve animals such as the eagles and armadillos from light weight balsa wood, plentiful in the rainforest.

Since 1992 Charles MacInerney has led over 50 meditation and yoga retreats in Mexico, and other locations around the world. His favorite discovery is Los Naranjos Retreat Center in Yelapa, on the Pacific Coast of Mexico. In February of 2000 he took a group of 23 students to this brand new center. He was so impressed that before he left he put up standing deposits for two retreats a year, and has continued to return twice a year to this little corner of paradise.
    The November 2003 retreat will be the ninth retreat that Charles has led at Los Naranjos Retreat Center, but his twelfth time to take groups into this amazing valley and the village of Yelapa.

Return to the Global Gourmet Main Page electronic Gourmet Guide, Inc. MEXICO Spice Blends A Culture One of the best ways to learn about a culture is by examining the way its people eat. How do they see food? What role does it play? What techniques have they developed for creating meals using their indigenous foods? Cookbooks are like snapshots of a people. This book in particular, La Parilla , captures the Mexican culture by examining the mainstay of their kitchens, the simple grill. Grilling in Mexico is an integral part of the lifestyle. Author Reed Hearon masterfully details the ingredients used ingredients not found in other countries or at least not in the same combination. He notes the use of "recados" spice blends that mimic in function but not in taste the garam masalas of India, or France's herbs de Provence. What a country does with its native fruits and vegetables also paints a picture of the resources, terrain and climate. In Mexico, the heat of the chiles causes sweat, making us cooler, while banana leaves act as both cooking vessels and flavoring agents.
